The Best Sports Bras for Every Size

Great sports bras are more than mere garments. They’re engineering marvels that can help runners extend their workouts, improve running form, and even avoid injury. Researchers at the University of Portsmouth in England found that excessive breast movement can result in heavier, injury-promoting landings. But a properly fitted bra can reduce breast bounce by half, making it one of the best investments a runner can make. Happily, our team of a dozen sports-bra testers—who ranged in size from 34A to 36DD—analyzed 49 different bra models and discovered that the top performers don’t always command top dollar.

All of our top-rated bras were cited for comfort, support, style, breathability, and ease of use. Check out our picks in your size:
